The Woman Who Can't Stop Growing
Doctors say Tanya Angus, from Nevada (USA), is the only woman in the world whose growth cannot be halted by medication. She has gained ten inches in just 12 years as a result of a rare growth condition, and is already one of the tallest and heaviest women on the planet.Suffering from a rare disease known as Acromeglia, a condition often referred to as "gigantism" where the body produces too much growth hormone, Miss Angus grew from a slender 5ft 8ins at the age of 18 to 6ft 6ins and 34 stone. Tanya had a count of 3,000 of the hormones, compared to an average person's of just 250. "People even in my home town are still so hurtful, and I'd like people to be educated so they can treat me as a real person at last" she said. |
